Surprised you American guys haven't build in gun holsters into your scooter. spaz12 is this normal in the US? Getting stuff like that? For people that grew up in a country where almost no guns were around this has quite some impact, visually I mean.

I wouldn't really say that it's "normal". And each state is different as well. Here in Nevada we can carry a pistol. My son can not carry one in California (without a difficult to get permit). And even though I'm allowed to carry it, I don't. Whenever I do go out shooting I always keep the guns in the trunk. And I'm also not a gun freak even though I grew up around them. I would say that the biggest reason I have them is because it's reason to spend time with my kid, who really enjoys shooting. It's like fishing...with bullets

Anyone who doesn't go to Walmart with at least an AR across their back and two pistols isn't a true American.

Nice pistol. Many Americans have a lot of guns. Some of my friends have several times more than I have. I just have two rifles, two shotguns, and a Ruger LCR .38 with a holster. They all have their uses. Kansas is a constitutional carry state but I never carry either. Like Spaz12 says; I just have them for target shooting and to spend time with my son which is starting his own collection. I taught him to shoot myself. He can shoot as well as I could when I was younger. My daughter was like my wife and though they were nasty or something.
I just had to purchase another spring and shock tower for my Ranger. The old one was tooooooo rusty.

Bought myself a brand new grom for my birthday. Been eyeing them for quite a while and decided to pull the trigger with the luck I've been having with my kymco. Gonna sell the kymco to cover some cost on the grom. Still gonna hang around the forum though, get in on some scoot tag if you'll allow it.

I love wagons. But after owning 2 Volvos, I decided to not get another. I wreck them. One did save my life with all its super duper safety features and ruggedness.

This is my 4th volvo, I love them! I used to work as volvo mech working mainly on 70's, 80's and 90's RWD models. But I know these 850's pretty well too. They're cheap, fast, extremely reliable and luxurious. With some simple performace mods (tune, exhaust, manual boostcontrol) i can give a lot of high end sportscars a real bad day!

I've been wanting to buy an old 240 wagon for some time now, even looked at a really nice one. My parents told me to get a job and then I could buy a car. I have a job and have had money saved up for some time now, but they still won't let me get one. I'm not too bitter about it since my dad bought a new Volvo (S60 T6 or whatever. The fast one.) but he kept his 04 Maxima 3.5SE so I get to drive that, at least..

As long as there's no speed barrier to break or gap to jump. Scooters can't do that stuff. Those Groms look like a kick in the ass......... all the way to the ER. That just might be me though. Happy Birthday.
